Spots of Time by Henry Iddon
17 March 2008 - 31 August 2008
During Wordsworth's lifetime, the Lake District was a relatively remote and peaceful area, but with the huge number of visitors today the only time when it is possible to experience anything like 'peace' is the dead of night. Henry Iddon’s photography, show-casing in our 3º West Gallery explores the vast landscape of the Lake District at night.
